Victor Bernardez tied the game with his second goal in the 95th minute and the San Jose Earthquakes drew 3-3 with Real Salt Lake in their Major League Soccer season opener at Buck Shaw Stadium on Saturday night.

Bernardez jumped on a loose clearance off a last-ditch cross from Shaun Francis. Real Salt Lake goalkeeper Nick Rimando went up against Earthquakes forward Alan Gordon to try to punch the ball away from danger, but it barely made it out of the visitors' 6-yard box, allowing Bernardez to hammer it home. The final whistle sounded just after the ensuing kickoff.

The draw extended San Jose's unbeaten streak at Buck Shaw to 21 games in all competitions. The Earthquakes had used another 95th-minute goal, this one from Gordon, to force a 1-1 tie with top-seeded Mexican side Toluca in the first leg of the teams' CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal Tuesday.

Joao Plata scored his second goal in two games for Salt Lake, which had been bidding to go to 2-0-0 under new head coach Jeff Cassar. Kyle Beckerman and MLS rookie Luke Mulholland also scored first-half goals for the visitors.
